DURHAM, NC (PRWEB) September 28, 2006 -- Island Training Solutions, Inc., an IBM business partner that provides training and mentoring for IBM® Rational® software tools, is now selling and supporting Build Forge, a technology IBM purchased in May 2006 to help close the gap between writing code, building an application and releasing it into production.

“Build Forge will be a boon for software development,” said Jim Herron, president of Island Training Solutions. “Software developers can use Build Forge to assemble existing scripts, tools and processes into repeatable tasks that eliminate human error. And managers will appreciate Build Forge’s capability to provide performance measurement and full audit trails of all tasks.”

In addition to providing Build Forge sales and support, Island Training is now offering Introduction to Build Forge, a free, live presentation delivered remotely via web and teleconference on Monday, October 2, at 11:00 a.m. Eastern. Introduction to Build Forge will provide a technical summary of the technology, typical applications and benefits.

Developers who would like to test drive Build Forge can also attend Island Training’s Build Forge Workshop, a two-hour, hands-on, instructor-led workshop delivered remotely via Island Training’s virtual classroom. The Build Forge Workshop is offered weekly, starting October 5, at no cost.

Island Training is also developing Build Forge Accelerator, an intensive five-day training and support program for new Build Forge installations.
